    Got the driver's side welded up today. Tedious getting it lined up perfectly symmetrically so the doors match when fully open. Measuring angles in 2 planes with the digital gauge, while holding and welding... Cardboard Aided Design was helpful getting the hinge symmetrical with the unibody, just trace and flip over. After it was all welded up, I measured from the shop floor to identical locations on the hinges (chassis is on blocks) and amazingly I'm right on. Probably should have checked that before I committed but I hadn't considered it in my plan. We'll only know the quality of my work when both doors are open...
